Score: 81/100
Turelar Handheld Immersion Blender
Score: 74/100Rankings
The Braun MQ50001M offers a compact 500 W motor with 21 speed settings and TurboBoost, delivering fine, mess-free blends. Its short continuous run time and stiff buttons can be limiting for extended tasks. Ideal for users who value precise speed control and a tidy kitchen experience.
The Turelar Immersion Blender offers a powerful 1100W motor and a versatile 5-in-1 attachment set, delivering strong performance for soups and smoothies. However, it runs loudly at 69 dB and can overheat when processing ice or heavy loads. It is best suited for beginners and small households needing an affordable multi-tool.

Professional reviewers commend the Braun MQ50001M for its powerful 500-W motor, extensive 21-speed range, and innovative PowerBell VPlus shaft that yields exceptionally fine blends while the SplashControl system keeps the kitchen tidy. However, they note drawbacks such as firm button actuation, a short continuous run limit, and inconsistent wattage listings that may confuse shoppers.
Everyday users love the hand blender's compact ergonomics, quiet operation, and mess-free blending thanks to SplashControl, praising its versatility for soups, smoothies, and baby food. Recurring complaints focus on stiff buttons, limited run time, and the fact that many useful attachments are sold separately, as well as confusion over the advertised wattage.
“stiff peaks in under 2 minutes”
“blends hot soups steadily at 136-140°F”
Professional reviewers, such as Shouldit, consider the Turelar Immersion Blender an average performer that excels at light duties like pureeing hot soups, making fresh smoothies, and whipping egg whites to stiff peaks in under two minutes. They commend its powerful 1100W motor, intuitive trigger speed control, long shaft and the value of its 5-in-1 attachment set, but note that it struggles with ice, frozen fruit and other heavy tasks, runs at a noticeable 69 dB noise level, and feels bulky for extended use.
Everyday users generally appreciate the blender's smooth blending, ease of one-hand operation, and the convenience of the included beaker and chopper jar. Common praise centers on its ability to handle hot soups without leaking and the scratch-free design. Recurring complaints involve motor overheating when tackling ice or frozen items, the need to add liquid to avoid suction, noisy operation, and wear on the beaker's measurement markings.
